let's go for a little walk around my flower gardens...


ugly, tacky and funky... retro vacation souvenir plates... if you frequent thrift shops, you've surely seen them.  i started collecting these two years ago and look forward to displaying them in my herb garden, each spring.


when fall comes, i pluck them up, give them a good washing and use them off and on throughout the winter time. they're always a hit when i have company over...who wouldn't love to eat from a plate that says montana?  or disney world?  wink.





have a happy thursday!
(below:  not thinking, i went to put my sunglasses on and poked myself in the eye.)  ouch.
